Our mission

Turning Sabah's food waste into something that feeds the soil — and the next generation.

HERMETIA ILLUCENS SDN. BHD exists to make organic waste useful again. We use Hermetia illucens — the Black Soldier Fly — to convert kitchen scraps and farm by-products into fertilizer, feed, and farm-grown chicken, while teaching the community how the cycle works.

Close the loop on food waste

Food waste does not have to end in landfill. Through Black Soldier Fly larvae, we turn it into fertilizer, animal feed, and farm-grown protein.

Strengthen local agriculture

We supply Sabah farmers with affordable, locally produced inputs that reduce reliance on imported feed and chemical fertilizer.

Educate for the long run

We work with schools, government, and businesses so the next generation grows up understanding circular, sustainable farming.

Company background

HERMETIA ILLUCENS SDN. BHD. — built in Keningau.

HERMETIA ILLUCENS SDN. BHD. was founded in Sabah to address a clear local problem: food waste piling up while farms still depend on imported feed and synthetic fertilizer. We saw an opportunity to close that loop using Black Soldier Fly larvae.

Today the company operates a working BSF facility in Keningau, partnering with food businesses for waste collection and supplying farmers with frass fertilizer and BSF-based feed. Our self-grown chicken line completes the cycle on-site.

We are registered as a wholesaler of fertilizers and agrochemical products, and we collaborate with schools and government bodies to bring practical sustainability education into the community.

The team

Three directors. One shared cycle.

HERMETIA ILLUCENS SDN. BHD is led by three directors working hands-on across operations, partnerships, and the rearing facility itself.
